In 2024, volume sales of cigarettes increased in Norway, with smoking remaining most prevalent among individuals aged over 45. However, a significant trend emerged among younger adults of legal smoking age (18-24), among whom cigarette consumption showed a marked rise. This shift was partly driven by regulatory changes, most notably the ban on flavoured e-cigarettes, which led some consumers to revert to traditional tobacco products.
